Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, C16orf72 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated C16orf72 data layer compared with 25 for mass-spec protein and 1 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), where higher C16orf72 Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated C16orf72 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
KIRP, BLCA, and PRAD are the cancer types where C16orf72 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
